Pogoseat is an American startup company. Its app offers ticket holders to upgrade seats during sporting events and concerts. The app uses GPS tracking to show a user's location and a map of the seats available at a venue. Fans inside the venue can buy open marketed seats that went unsold at a reduced cost. The seats are discounted from face value based on the time remaining at the event and the score. The app is on Android and iOS devices.
The Golden State Warriors and Stanford men's basketball were the first to use Pogoseat. The service expanded to other live entertainment with its partnership with Broadway San Diego.
The company received $100,000 in a round of funding in January 2014. In February 2014, Pogoseat partnered with Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Pogoseat also partnered with the San Francisco Giants in 2014 on its MLB At the Ballpark app to let fans upgrade tickets during games.
